A lot of my photos have been in black and white. The main reason for this is because I don't want colour to take away the focus from the light and shadow in my images. It has been a running theme through out my work, though not the main focus, but still important. It started with my photos taken on the bus, where the light from the sun was really prominant in some of the images. The pictures I took of Vicky with a torch really focus on this as I wanted to create shadow to hide part of her face. This has been something that links mine, Vicky's and Kerry's work. Kerry's because her theme has been masks and the hidden/unknown. And Vicky's because of how her fears of language have made her feel unconfident at times, and wanted to hind by being quiet. Here I made my photos of Vicky just black and white, as oppose to grey scale, to focus on the light and shadow.
Here I have printed my image onto acetate and then layered it over Vicky's work.
